Without the detectorists, I wouldn't know that University Challenge is a real-life show that I absolutely love.
Also: Did you see University Challenge last night?
- onion2k 5y agoI like University Challenge but it makes me feel like I'm an idiot. Or maybe it just reveals the fact that I am actually an idiot. I get 4 or 5 answers per show at most. My partner sits and answers about 20% of the questions correctly. She's far cleverer than me. But I'm better at video games so it all evens out.
- jnsie 5y agoI feel the same about hacker news, to be honest.
- lebski88 5y agoI found that when I watched it a lot I got much better at it. The style of the questions needs to be learnt. There are also a bunch of writers, composers and painters that come up a lot. If in doubt guessing one of these from roughly the correct period works pretty well!
